[Nix-dev] Problem with grub2

Hello Nix hackers,

when i try to install NixOS 14.12 with the minimal configuration provided
by nixos-generate-config everything is fine until the installation of
grub2. Grub tells me that there are multiple disk labels assigned to the
device. When i look into /dev/disk/by-label i find one label for a
partition. Is there a way to get rid of this disk labels? I tried it with
parted but that brought no help. Is there a configuration option to to just
use device names? I have not found a Nix configuration which tells nix to
use devices instead of labels. By the way choosing grub1 is working fine.
Choosing grub1 is working for me right now but i would like to use grub2 as
my boot manager. Is there a way to get it running?

Looking forward for any help.

Yours sincerely,
Fabian
